COMPLEX HERNIA REPAIR
HERNIA MESH SELECTION CRITERIA
^The modified VHWG classification system was developed (2012) to accurately predict surgical site occurrence (SSO) after open ventral hernia repair. SSO was defined as development of an infection, seroma, wound dehiscence, or formation of an enterocutaneous fistula.

Repair technique and reinforcing material selection are among many considerations surgeons have prior to performing a ventral hernia repair. Many surgeons consider the Ventral Hernia Working Group (VHWG) grading system or its modified version to assess the risk of surgical site complications in patients undergoing ventral hernia repair. This grading scale also helps surgeons decide what type of reinforcing matrix to use for their hernia repairs, relative to each patient.
As the manufacturer of this device, Integra does not practice medicine and does not make specific recommendations for patients. The surgeon performing the procedure is responsible for determining and using the appropriate product for each patient.

SURGIMEND FOR HERNIA REPAIR
Complex abdominal wall repairs (CAWR) can be difficult and costly to repair. Patients often suffer from complications such as hernia recurrence, infection at the site of repair, or within the wound itself. Surgeons seek hernia repair matrices that demonstrate low recurrence rates and the ability to provide a durable, long-lasting repair for their patient. SurgiMend addresses these concerns.

In complex hernia repair, surgeons have a variety of source material to choose from however, not all biologic matrices are created equal. SurgiMend is the only bovine-dermal matrix, offering stronger and thicker configurations when compared to Strattice.
For a long-lasting repair, surgeons require biologic matrices that allow for rapid revascularization and integration with the patient’s own tissue.

The Ventral Hernia Working Group does not recommend the use of synthetic mesh in Grade 3 or Grade 4 hernias.1 Study data has shown that complications occur more frequently in patients treated with synthetic mesh, with a readmission rate three times that of biologic mesh.2
VALUE ANALYSIS
A study published by Otake et al. 2013 indicates that biologic mesh does not result in a significant direct-cost burden to the institution, and may lower longer-term costs associated with complications, as compared to synthetic meshes.3

Clinical evidence demonstrates SurgiMend reinforcement resulted in a low 4 – 8% recurrence rate in CAWR patients followed up to 5 years post-implantation.
In the US, ventral hernia repairs are estimated to cost at least $3.2B annually. Any reductions in recurrence rates may result in substantial cost savings. Every 1% reduction in procedural rates could result in a savings of approximately $32 million annually.5
The hospital costs for a readmission related to a CAWR are significantly higher than those for the index admission ($29,809 for the index admission, vs. $57,267 for readmission) according to a US-based, single site study reviewing 72 patients.4 The resulting reimbursement for the readmission would likely be the same as the index admission.
